    Supports→The relation between objects in space and experiences whose temporal order we correctly determine need not be causal; objects in space need only provide a frame of reference.

    Reichenbach's analysis of time order shows that temporal relations among events can be grounded in signal connectibility without requiring causal production between object-states and observer experiences.

    Key Terms

    Object-states(as the potential sources of experience that Reichenbach's analysis doesn't require)
    The specific conditions or properties that a physical thing (like an object) has at a particular moment in time.
    Reichenbach
    # Reichenbach Reichenbach refers to Hans Reichenbach (1891-1953), a German-American philosopher who studied how science actually works and how we should interpret probability and time. He's known for developing ideas about causation and for arguing that some aspects of physics—like whether events happen at specific moments—depend on how we choose to measure them. His work bridges philosophy and science, making him important for understanding how scientists draw conclusions from evidence.
    Signal connectibility(as an alternative way to explain time order without using causality)
    Whether two events can be linked together by sending a message or signal from one to the other—basically, whether information could travel from one event to reach another.
    causal production(as used in causality and epistemology)

    temporal relations(describing how time works within experiences)
    The ways that moments in time connect to each other—like how one event happens before, after, or at the same time as another.
